Aberdeen
Aberdeen is a unique climbing area in Scotland, with extensive areas of Sea Cliffs. Some of these cliffs have been controversially bolted, retro-bolted (etc) and as a result, there are now a number of sport routes here and lots of dodgy rusty bolts.
There are many more routes of a traditional nature however and, as ever, the debate goes on as to whether or not the bolts should be removed from the sport routes...

This page used to be a lot more useful when it had links to some
content maintained by students at Aberdeen University. Thanks to Stuart Stronach you can still fnd some of this content at the Cairngorm Club's website (see link above).
but if YOU have climbed on the sea cliffs near Aberdeen , please let us know about
them.
